A young boy owns a magnificent green-and-gold suit his mother insists must be preserved for special occasions. Longing to truly experience life while wearing it, he sneaks out one moonlit night into a dreamlike garden and countryside filled with wonder, water, stars, and music. By morning he is found dead after falling into a stone pit, but with a face full of perfect happiness.
